Board of Directors

The Board of Directors consists of 11 members with each position holding a two-year term. Nominations for board positions are accepted at anytime, however April 30th is the deadline if you wish to be considered for the upcoming year. Each spring the board will announce which positions will be available for the next year and the qualifications (if any) for that position. The member-at-large positions are voted on by the entire membership of the society while the other positions review all nominations and appoint the most qualified applicant for that position. If you are interested in more information about a board position or wish to fill out a nomination form, please contact us at tssus@turnersyndrome.org
